Topic: Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI)—intentional acts of harming oneself by cutting, burning, scratching or punching—is a confounding and complex phenomenon that can occur across the lifespan, yet usually begins in adolescence. Although NSSI is not new, the emergence of social media has created new challenges as adolescents view, share, upload and comment on NSSI-related content online. Join leading experts Amanda L. Giordano, PhD, LPC, and Michael K. Schmit, PhD, LPC, to discuss signs and symptoms of NSSI among adolescents and the role of the internet in potentially exacerbating the issue.
